WEST SIDE DOINGS.
Several Things That the Union

Several Things That the Union
Considered Last Night.
The West Side Citizens union met in
Thompson's hall last evening. A reso-
luton was unanimously passed In favor
of abOliShing the dump on the river bank
near the city limits. Copies of the reSo-
luton were ordered to be sent to-
the council and the Dayton's
Bluff union, as the latter
union is even more opposed TO the dump
than the West Side union. The adver-
Using committee made report and
were granted further time to finish their
plans for advertising. President Camp
bell gave notice that at the next meet
ing the matter of changing the name of
the West st. Paul park would come
up, and therefore requested a
full attendance. Some of the members
expressed themselves in favor of calling
it Livingstone Park, which it is quite
likely will be done. D. S. Boston
brought up the matter of abandoning
Sibley street, and moved that 1t be
made special order fer the next meet

in that way making it taxable. II it

veyed the land to her, ut omitted to surren-
der TO her the certificates, which were al
lowed to remain in the possession of Chester
A. Congdon, the attorney and agent for Her
mans.
In May, 1885, Mrs. Trott executed a mort
gage to Albert Scheffer for $1,000. This
mortgage was foreclosed and Albert Scheffer
bid the property in for S9,73S.05. Last May
Albert Scheffer assigned the property to the
plaintiff, who has ever since been the holder
of the sheriff's certificates of sale, which
were executed to Albert Scheffer.
The plaintiff charges Heermans with con-
spiraey and intent to defraud. He alleges
that in August, 1856, Heermans combined
with Defendant Hine for the purpose of
cheating and defrauding Ann Eliza Trott,and
all claimants under her, including the
plaintiff, by taking advantage of mistake
or inadyertanee of Mrs. Trott whereby the
said certificates and the assignments of the
several tax sales were not surrendered to
Mrs Trott and the county auditor.
A peremptory injunction is prayed for to
prevent Hine or Heermans from setting up
any claim to the property.

HE SAT- ON THE TRUNK,
But the "COn Man" Who SwindIed
Him, Oh, Where Was He?


Excuse me. sir, but please get off my
trunk" said man in travelling garb,
approaching rural-ioOking chap, who
was sitting on the end of big ''keyster"
In the baggage room of the. union depot.
'Your trunk?" echoed the rural.
"You don't fool me. 1 reckon I've
heerd of just such feliers as you be-"
ther across the corner as if to hold pos
session.
They parleyed few moments and
the argument grew hot. The first man
grabbed the rural by the collar and,
after lively tussle, they were separated
by the baggagemaster. Then the drum
mer showed a check for the trunk in
question and got the baggageman to re-
tag it. When the rural'S breath came
to him again he told his side of
the case, and the story was this:
The rural was from Canada on his way
to settle in Dakota. His name was
Henry Walker. He had been ap-
preached by smooth-looking stranger,
who soon established an acquaintance
with him, and said he was bound for
the same destination. They had little
toddy together at the strangers expense

run short Of ready money. The stranger
showed the rural a check for $3.50,
which was signed by Fisk & Co., and
showed him his trunk-the trunk afore-
said. The rural thought he must be a
rich man, and accommodated him with
s55 in ready cash. Then the stranger
remembered he had an errand I'D town.
and left the rural sitting there on the
trunk to await his return The rural
was still sitting there when the real
owner came up.

as lots 8 and 4, block %, kittsOn's addi-
ton. The allegations of the plaintiff,
as drawn up by his attorney; Harvey
Officer, are in briefs ~
In August, 1882, while Ann Eliza Trott
was owner of the property, certain tax jtidg-
ments were rendered against 4it-for lakes
levied in 1881. By virtue of these judgments
County Auditor Kahn sold the; tax titles in
September for S125. The land was stiIlun-
redeemed in April, 1884, when II. C. Heer-
mans came upon the scene and paid the
certificates of CONVEYANCE for lots

tax titles were again knocked down to Heer-
mans in September for 1921. 81 and two more
certificates issued. Subsequently Mrs Trott
was advised that there were tax titles as liens
upon her property, and that the tax certifi-
Gates for the taxes of 1881 were not subject
to redemption under the state laws. RELYING
upon these representations she was
induced to pay to Heermans S25GO
to get book her property, which she did in
April, 1885, contracting to pay for all the

THAT 100000 BOND.
The City Will Try to Collect the
Indemnifying Bond Given by

The City Will Try to Collect the
Indemnifying Bond Given by
the Burlington.
1t was given out yesterday that the
city will make all effort by process of
law to recover on the indemnifying bond
given by the Burlington Il Northern
road when it secured its right of way
iuto tho city. For two months past
surveying party. under the direction of
Civil Engineers Davenport and Miller,
has been taking observations relative to
the change in the channel, caused by
the entertainments and filling in of the
channel by the Chicago, Burling-
ton s. Northern railway at
the first bend below Dayton's
bluff. The operations have been carried
on quietly and the object has not been
made known to anybody. It leaked
out yesterday that the work is being
done in the interests of the city and that
it is preliminary to a suit that will be
brought by tho city to recover from the
Burlington road for damages to prop
erty caused by diversion of the river
channel, and the consequent overflow
of the lower leveeS on the west bank Of
the river.
The Burlington road secured its right
to enter the city on the river bank be-
low the bluff from the Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul road. There was
not room for the tracks OF these two
lines along the narrow strip and the
Burlington began to fill In the river
channel to give it more extended facifi-
ties. A year ago the city secured tenn
porary injunction In the district court,
RESTRAINING THE ROAD
from further encroachments. In order
TO have this Injunction removed, the
Burlington officials executed an indem-
nifying bond of s10o, 900 to protect the
city against any damage which might
be done by reason of the filling in. That
= bond is filed with the city comptroller,
and it is to recover upon that bond that
the surveyors are obtaining evidence.
Capt. j. A. Starkey was commissioned
by City Attorney Murray and H. c.
Horn, assistant counsel, to have super
vision of the work, ard the city will
bring suit about Sept. Is. The survey
ing party have already gathered suffi-
cient evidence to show material DAM
age, and Capt. Starkey does not antici-
pate any difficulty In recovering the full
amount OF the bond and perhaps more,
for an additional damage will be
claimed. The engineers have taken OBJ
ServationS when the river was at differ
ent stages, and at all times of the day.
A float has been used fer the purpose Of
determining whether the channel of the
river is being diverted. Twice a day
the party move down the river In this
vessel, and at the point where the filling
in has been done the current carries the
Heat directly against the embankments.
